Hello, can anyone help me?? I am trying to find a cookie recipe, or anything dessert like e.g cake, that does not contain EGGS, DAIRY of GLUTEN. Thanks

Here's an apple tart that has a nut/date crust. I fixed it for Thanksgiving and it is really good.

Open Original Shared Link When I make it again (for this weekend) I'm going to double the amount of apples.

I've yet to find a bread or cake baked without egg that is worth the effort, so I try to concentrate on desserts that naturally don't have egg, and the apple tart is the best I've had so far.

There may be others who have had more success than me and will post their recipes - I'll be watching along with you.

What a great recipe, thanks, I will make it this weekend for sure

Hi Daisey,

I've been experimenting with some of this recently. I agree with artgirl on the bread, except for fruitbreads which seem to be okay, just substitute a variety of egg replacers. (For example: 4 eggs required - gelatin for one, tofu for second, banana for third, egg whites or egg replacer for 4th. Also add a tsp or so of flax meal to your dry ingredients.) You might need to add some sort of frosting though, my breads seem a little dry. And make spicy cookies, with cinnamon or nutmeg or ginger. Wheat and eggs impart a flavor that's missing when you don't use them. When you add spices it's less obvious.

Thanks for the great advice, frosting also seems like a great Idea. I'll keep everyone posted about my cooking experiments.

Cheers

Thanks for starting this ...

I don't have a recipe, but I have been eating Pamela's ginger cookies and they are gluten-free,SF,EF,DF. They are made with molasses and that took some getting used to, but now I like them ...

I also like Bob's gluten-free chocolate cake mix and it is gluten-free,SF,DF,EF. I make it with canola oil instead of margarine or butter, flax meal instead of eggs and nut milk. The cupcakes always rise.

Hi Daisey:

Besides gluten I have diagnosed allergies to dairy (casein), eggs, soy and cane sugar. For my celiac support group's holiday cooky exchange I made Christmas cookies from my 'adapted' recipe:

FRUIT AND NUT SLICE AND BAKE COOKIES

(Gluten, Dairy, Soy, Egg and Cane Sugar Free)

Stir 1-1/2 Tablespoon Flax meal into 1/3 cup very hot water. Leave 10 minutes.

Dredge with 1/3 cup of Bob

hi daisy,

i made 12 batches of christmas treats, all gluten/casein/egg free. if you need more ideas, please let me know and i'll post them.

marciab Enthusiast

Lorka,

Could you please post those ? So far this is a really good thread for allergen free goodies. Thanks marcia

BTW, any ideas on what to use instead of corn starch ? And corn based fructose ?

RiceGuy Collaborator

I occasionally enjoy rice pudding or tapioca pudding. Both can easily be made without the ingredients you mentioned. I usually add a few fruits like berries and apples, which always seem to taste great in these desserts. It can't hurt to get creative and just experiment. Whenever I aim to try a new combination, I just imagine what the flavors will be like when combined - seems to work out every time so far :)

I have a cookbook called Cooking Free, it has 100's of recipies that are soy/corn/gluten/diary free! I'd recommend getting it (or see if your library has it).

Marcia,

I always use potato starch instead of cornstarch. :) That is, of course, if you can tolerate potatoes. Some days, they are about all I can tolerate :D

Burdee - I made the Chocolate Almond Slice and Bake Cookies from your recipe today - YUM YUM!!!

I couldn't find any almond flour at Whole Foods today, so I bought whole almonds and ran them through the blender - worked pretty good but left some larger pieces of almond which I just sifted out. This is probably cheaper than buying the almond flour anyway.

I am alergic to corn, so instead of sucrose I used cane sugar. I packaged the dough into four rolls and put all but one in the freezer - this is going to be very convenient to bake up a small batch of cookies in the future (there are only two of us so small amounts of calorie-laden goodies is best).

I use arrowroot or potato starch instead of cornstarch - think any of the starches would work for most recipes.

Lorka - yes, keep those recipes coming!

We just made a gingerbread house and gingerbread cookies and they were gluten-free, egg-free, dairy-free and soy-free and yummy! This recipe makes a lot, so you might want to cut it in half. It made a large house and 2 trays of cookies.

Gingerbread people (Adapted from Betty Crocker)

1 C packed brown sugar

1/3 C shortening, softened to creamy (I used Spectrum)

1-1/2 C dark molasses

2/3 C cold water

7 C gluten-free flour (make sure it has xanthan gum sifted in; at least 1/2 tsp. per cup)

2 tsp. baking soda

2 tsp. ground ginger

2 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. cloves

Mix sugar, shortening, mosasses and water well with a hand mixer. Stir in remaining ingredients. Use a strong spoon and lots of elbow grease! Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Heat oven to 350. Roll dough 1/4 inch thick on floured board. Cut with floured cutters. Place about 2 inches apart on lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake until no indentation remains when touched, 10-12 minutes. Let set for 3-5 minutes before removing from cookie sheet.

no recipes here im not a good baker... but i can follow mixing instructions. so i use Namaste mixes and Really great food company mixes both fit your needs and "bake" up great

Liz,

I love ginger snaps. I wonder if one could just roll the dough in logs, refrigerate, and then cut off slices like refrigerator cookies, without rolling out and using a cookie cutter. I think I'll give it a try. Thanks for the recipe.

I don't think they'd turn out quite like ginger snaps, but I'm sure that method would work - although the dough is still somewhat soft even after being refrigerated.

I love your avatar - did you paint it?

Just tried this recipe and it tastes great. I need practice with the crust but that just means I have a reason to make the recipe again.

Thanks so much for posting the link!!!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
